4 Superstars Paul Heyman couldn't get over

#1 Mean Mark

Mean Mark and Paul E. Dangerously

Before becoming possibly the greatest superstar in WWE history, The Undertaker was a typical big guy wrestler in WCW. Dubbed as Mean Mark Callous, Taker was put under the guidance of Heyman, then known as Paul E. Dangerously, defeating the likes of Brian Pillman and Johnny Ace, better known as John Laurinaitis.

He was shockingly mature for someone so new to the industry." Heyman said about managing Taker in his early days.

Mark Callous didn't make waves under Heyman's tutelage and didn't break out of the mid-card throughout his run. Heyman eventually helped him get noticed by Vince McMahon, who initially didn't show interest. After Bruce Prichard asked Vince to speak with Taker, the two met and he soon debuted at WWE Survivor Series 1990. The rest is history, as the dark, mysterious character of The Undertaker became a huge hit among the fans.

The Undertaker is often known to be one of the few superstars who underwent extremely minor changes to his gimmick in a career that spanned over three decades. But The Mean Mark Gimmick is what set the tone for the Deadman to become a legend of the business.
